Plains, Prairies Quick Takes
12/19 10:58 AM
January canola is down $8.80 per metric ton (mt), March canola is down $8.90 per metric ton (mt), March soybean oil is down .42 cents/pound, February European rapeseed is down 7.25 euro per mt and February Malaysian palm oil is down 1.76%. March oats are up 3/4 cents/bushel. February crude oil is up $.48 per barrel, February ULSD is down $.0116 per gallon, and the December Canadian dollar is down .00020 at .72835. The March U.S. Dollar Index is up .207 at 98.295 and the January Brazilian real is up .00035 at 0.18115. Soybeans briefly turned positive following the start of the day session but that attracted further selling interest, with another leg lower to follow. That pulled the plug on canola as well with oilseeds in general probing for buying support with little found so far. Even another soybean flash sale announcement of 134,000 mt sold to China failed to provide much lasting support. Weaker diesel prices are not helping despite the small gains in crude oil to end the week. Grains are mixed with corn drifting slightly lower and wheat mixed. On a brighter note, cattle markets are sharply higher ahead of the afternoon release of the latest Cattle on Feed report. In outside markets, treasuries remain under pressure while equities are trading higher amid a lack of news. Currencies are relatively quiet other than a sharply lower Japanese yen, leaving the U.S. dollar quietly higher. (c) Copyright 2025 DTN, LLC. All rights reserved. |
